someone left a sample of something called "spinach idlis" yuck to the max. not sure what the popularity of this is all about. it was soggy and burp inducing. completely lost my appetite.

That is so awesome! Did you get vepa pootha in the local desi store? Nuthana samvatsara shubha kankshalu. 
I referenced Shailu's kitchen for making Rava dosa over the weekend.

Sad to hear the news about your friend - hope you feel better soon.

Sigh! It runs in your family. I hope you are getting your annual/biannual screenings done without fail.
I know how much you miss your mom. This friend has a 16 yr old daughter. I feel so bad for her. She has to go through her wedding, child births and all without her mother. It's so hard!  Crying or Very sad 

Thanks for the Ugadi greetings!

elai vadam[special from india :-)] with pulav. Turned out to be a rather interesting combination. I am reminded of my mom because she always used to involve me in preparing elai vadam from scratch. God, I miss her.  Crying or Very sad

I am going to steam, boil, stir fry or eat my veggies raw, but i am never going to make raw juices out of them. Total disaster every time i make them. Tried different kinds, but nothing clicked. I just made carrot juice. Yuck!! I'd rather chew on the raw carrots than make the juice.

Fruit juices/milk shakes are fine, but veggie juices...don't even think about them. Tried and tested, but failed! Take my advice.
